[It's one of the little girls again.]

Tell me, if you would, of your rulers. Your kings and queens, emperors and empresses, presidents and prime ministers. Who decides the fate of your country and inspires your loyalty? Or, perhaps not.

On another personal note, who would suggest a weapon suitable for a girl ten years of age?

[pucelle]

In a way, yes. So long as it is as God commands, I will follow with unwavering loyalty.

[trueempress]

Many of my own followers must be like that.

[pucelle]

Do you find that displeasing, or is that how you believe it should be?

[trueempress]

I believe in the goddess's holy word as much as they do. There need be no further reason than her decree to follow the holy apostle.

[pucelle]

Holy apostle... Are you referring to yourself?

[trueempress]

I am.

[pucelle]

I see. Though it seems we may serve different gods, it is still an honor to meet an apostle herself.

[trueempress]

The virtues that are espoused and the protection of the weak may be common to all noble religions.

[pucelle]

Certainly, I would like to believe that. Religions where one cannot have faith in their god for protection and hope... it seems quite sad to me.

[trueempress]

It's tragic for me to think that some still exist even in my world, although the goddess's healing words have spread near and far.

[pucelle]

Mm. I can only hope that one day all people will realize the kindness of God and open their hearts to Him so that He may offer the salvation they need.

[trueempress]

A worthy prayer.

[pucelle]

Your words are too kind.

[trueempress]

They are appropriate.

[pucelle]

Not at all. I am just a humble follower, same as anyone else.

[trueempress]

If you would like to say so.

[pucelle]

--ah, but where are my manners. To have had such a pleasant conversation and not have even given my name is rather rude of me. It's a little late, but allow me to introduce myself. My name is Ruler, and it is a pleasure to meet you mademoiselle.

[trueempress]

Sanaki. It is my pleasure as well to meet someone of faith.

[pucelle]

Indeed. It is rather disheartening to see so many who would choose to turn away from it, so I am always delighted to see one who has that faith.

[trueempress]

I hope to continue to speak to you more often.

[pucelle]

You are free to contact me anytime you wish then, Sanaki. I would be more than happy to speak with you whenever you wish.

[trueempress]

And I can say likewise.
